    I just thought this photo was too funny not to share. How many of us have had a good pair of scissors walk off or get used by someone for opening mail or cutting off all Barbie's hair?

    Never again! :lol:

    And the men in your life always like to tease you about using them for mechanics or something.

    Love it, my kids knew at a very early age to ask if they could use the scissors for paper or if they were for fabric. lol
